Program Catalog Management

Overview

The Program Catalog (Alta de Programas) enables high-level administrators to create and manage federal programs that serve as the foundation for project assignments and budget tracking. Programs represent the federal government’s research and administrative initiatives within INAPESCA.

Program creation is restricted to Director General, Director de Administración, and Director Adjunto roles. Jefes de Centro can only assign existing programs to their units.

Program Structure

Programs in SMAF follow the federal budget structure:

Componente (Component)
└── Programa (Program)
    └── Proyecto (Project)
        └── Partida Presupuestal (Budget Item)

Program Hierarchy

Component Level

Represents major programmatic areas aligned with federal objectives (e.g., “Investigación Pesquera”, “Acuacultura”).

Program Level

Specific initiatives within a component with defined objectives and budget allocations.

Project Level

Operational assignments of programs to administrative units (CRIPs or Direcciones).

Accessing Program Management

Navigate to Catálogos > Alta de Programas in the main menu.

Role-Based Access

Role	Capabilities
Director General	Create global programs for all directorates
Director de Administración	Create global programs for all directorates
Director Adjunto	Create programs within own directorate
Jefe de Centro	Assign existing programs to local projects (read-only for catalog)

Creating Programs

Director General Workflow

Select Directorate

Choose the directorate (Dirección Adjunta) that will own this program.

dplDireccion.DataSource = MngNegocioDirecciones.ObtienenDirecciones(Year, true);
dplDireccion.DataValueField = "Codigo";
dplDireccion.DataTextField = "Descripcion";
dplDireccion.DataBind();

Select Component

Choose the component number that classifies this program.

dplComponente.DataSource = MngNegocioComponente.Obtienencomponente();
dplComponente.DataValueField = "Codigo";
dplComponente.DataTextField = "Descripcion";
dplComponente.DataBind();

Enter Program Details

Fill in the required fields:

Descripción: Full program name
Descripción Corta: Abbreviated name for reports
Objetivo: Program objective and scope

Assign Coordinator

Enter the name of the program coordinator. For Director General, this is a free-text field.

txtCoordinador.Visible = true;
dplCoordinador.Visible = false;

Set Global Budget

Enter the total program budget (Presupuesto Global).

lspresupuestototal = PrpTotal.Text;

// Validation
if (!clsFuncionesGral.IsNumeric(lspresupuestototal))
{
    Bandera = false;
}

Optional: Add Local Budget

Check “Agregar presupuesto local” if this program has a separate local budget component.

if (chkLocal.Checked)
{
    clsFuncionesGral.Activa_Paneles(pnlPresupuestoLocal, true);
}

Save Program

Click Agregar to save the program.

Director Adjunto Workflow

Director Adjunto users have a modified workflow:

Select User Type

Choose whether coordinators will be local users or CRIP-based users.

clsFuncionesGral.Llena_Lista(dplTipoUsuario, "= S E L E C C I O N E =|Usuarios Locales|Usuarios Crips");

Usuarios Locales: Personnel in the directorate office
Usuarios Crips: Personnel in regional research centers

Select Component

Choose the component (directorate is auto-selected based on user’s assignment).

If CRIP Users Selected

Choose the specific CRIP (adscripción) to filter available coordinators.

if (lsUbicacion == Dictionary.DGAIA)
{
    dplAdscripcion.DataSource = MngNegocioAdscripcion.ObtieneAdscripcion();
}
else
{
    dplAdscripcion.DataSource = MngNegocioAdscripcion.ObtieneAdscripcion(lsUbicacion);
}

Select Coordinator

Choose from the filtered list of users.

dplCoordinador.DataSource = MngNegocioUsuarios.MngBussinesUssers(
    lsAdscripcion, 
    lsUsuario, 
    lsRol, 
    true
);

Complete Program Details

Enter description, objective, and budget as above.

Jefe de Centro Workflow

CRIP directors select from existing global programs:

Select Existing Program

Choose from programs available to your directorate.

dplProgramas.DataSource = MngNegociosProgramas.Obtiene_Programas_Direccion(lsUbicacion);
dplProgramas.DataValueField = "Codigo";
dplProgramas.DataTextField = "Descripcion";
dplProgramas.DataBind();

View Program Details

Description, objective, and short description are auto-populated (read-only).

Descripcion.Enabled = false;
DescripcionCorta.Enabled = false;
Objetivo.Enabled = false;

Select Local Coordinator

Choose a coordinator from your CRIP’s personnel.

dplCoordinador.DataSource = MngNegocioUsuarios.MngBussinesUssers(
    lsUbicacion, 
    lsUsuario, 
    "", 
    true
);

Set Annual Budget

Enter the budget allocated to your CRIP for this program (Presupuesto Anual).

Program Codes

Program codes are automatically generated:

lsPrograma = MngNegociosProgramas.Obtiene_Max_Programa(lsdireccion);

Code Structure

[Dirección]-[Sequence]

Example:

Dirección: 906 (DGAIA)
Sequence: 001 (first program for this directorate this year)
Result: 906-001

Program Types

Programs are classified by their scope:

Tipo

string

Program type determines assignment flexibility.

Type Definitions

Type	Name	Description	Cross-Directorate
1	Transversal	Can be used by any directorate/CRIP	Yes
2	Directorate-Specific	Limited to parent directorate	No
3	Local	Restricted to specific CRIP	No

Type Assignment Logic

The program type is determined based on where it can be assigned:

// Check if program type allows cross-directorate assignment
if (lsdireccion != MngNegocioDependencia.Obtiene_Direccion(lsAdscripcion))
{
    if ((oPrograma.Tipo == "2") || (oPrograma.Tipo == "3"))
    {
        // Error: Cannot assign across directorates
        ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(
            this.GetType(), 
            "Inapesca", 
            "alert('EL PROGRAMA SELECCIONADO NO ES TRANSVERSAL');", 
            true
        );
        return;
    }
}

Required Fields

All programs must have complete information:

Component (Componente)

if (lsnumcomponente == "0")
{
    Bandera = false;
}

Cannot be zero or empty. Must reference a valid component from the federal catalog.

Description (Descripción)

if ((lsdescripcion == null) | (lsdescripcion == ""))
{
    Bandera = false;
}

Full program name is required. Automatically converted to uppercase.

Short Description (Descripción Corta)

if ((lsdescripcorta == null) | (lsdescripcorta == ""))
{
    Bandera = false;
}

Abbreviated name for use in reports and grids.

Objective (Objetivo)

if ((lsobjetivo == null) | (lsobjetivo == ""))
{
    Bandera = false;
}

Clear statement of program goals and expected outcomes.

Coordinator (Coordinador)

if ((lscoordinador == null) | (lscoordinador == ""))
{
    Bandera = false;
}

Responsible personnel for program oversight.

Budget (Presupuesto)

if ((lspresupuestototal == null) | (lspresupuestototal == ""))
{
    Bandera = false;
}

if (!clsFuncionesGral.IsNumeric(lspresupuestototal))
{
    Bandera = false;
}

Must be numeric and non-negative.

Local Budget Component

Programs can have dual budget allocations:

Global Budget

The total federal allocation for the program across all units.

Local Budget

A subset allocated specifically to the directorate’s local operations.

if (pnlPresupuestoLocal.Visible)
{
    Entidad ent = MngNegocioDependencia.Obtiene_Tipo_Region(lsdireccion);
    
    Resultado = MngNegocioProyecto.Inserta_Proyecto(
        lsnumcomponente, 
        lsPrograma,
        lsdireccion, 
        clsFuncionesGral.ConvertMayus(lsdescripcion), 
        clsFuncionesGral.ConvertMayus(lsdescripcorta), 
        lscoordinador, 
        clsFuncionesGral.ConvertMayus(lsobjetivo), 
        lsdireccion, 
        ent.Descripcion, 
        lsArea, 
        lsPresupuestoLocal  // Local budget amount
    );
}

When a local budget is specified, the system automatically creates a local project assignment in addition to the global program entry.

Insert Operation

The program insertion process:

lsPrograma = MngNegociosProgramas.Obtiene_Max_Programa(lsdireccion);

Resultado = MngNegociosProgramas.Insert_Programas(
    lsnumcomponente,                              // Component code
    lsPrograma,                                   // Auto-generated program code
    clsFuncionesGral.ConvertMayus(lsdescripcion), // Description (uppercase)
    clsFuncionesGral.ConvertMayus(lsdescripcorta),// Short desc (uppercase)
    clsFuncionesGral.ConvertMayus(lsobjetivo),    // Objective (uppercase)
    lscoordinador,                                // Coordinator user ID
    lsdireccion,                                  // Parent directorate
    lspresupuestototal                            // Total budget
);

if (Resultado) 
    ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(
        this.GetType(), 
        "Inapesca", 
        "alert('SE HA AGREGADO EL PROGRAMA CORRECTAMENTE.');", 
        true
    );
else
{
    ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(
        this.GetType(), 
        "Inapesca", 
        "alert('Ocurrio un error al insertar el programa favor de validar.');", 
        true
    );
    return;
}

Data Validation

Field Validation

All text fields are converted to uppercase and sanitized:

lsdescripcion = clsFuncionesGral.ConvertMayus(Descripcion.Text);
lsdescripcorta = clsFuncionesGral.ConvertMayus(DescripcionCorta.Text);
lsobjetivo = clsFuncionesGral.ConvertMayus(Objetivo.Text);

Special Character Removal

Project descriptions have special characters removed:

oPrograma.Descripcion = clsFuncionesGral.RemoveSpecialCharacters(lsProyecto);

Budget Validation

Budget amounts must be numeric values. The system validates using:

if (!clsFuncionesGral.IsNumeric(lspresupuestototal))
{
    Bandera = false;
    alert('Todos los campos son obligatorios, presupuesto numerico.');
}

Coordinator Selection

Auto-Assignment for Director General

When a Director General selects a directorate, the coordinator is auto-populated:

protected void dplDireccion_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    lsdireccion = dplDireccion.SelectedValue.ToString();
    if (lsdireccion != "0")
    {
        Entidad obj = MngNegocioUsuarios.Datos_DirAdjunto(lsdireccion);
        txtCoordinador.Text = obj.Descripcion;
        lscoordinador = obj.Codigo;
    }
}

Dynamic Loading for Director Adjunto

// Load local users
if (lstipo == "2")
{
    dplCoordinador.DataSource = MngNegocioUsuarios.MngBussinesUssers(
        lsUbicacion, 
        lsUsuario, 
        lsRol, 
        true
    );
}
// Load CRIP users based on selected unit
else
{
    dplCoordinador.DataSource = MngNegocioUsuarios.MngBussinesUssers(
        lsAdscripcion,  // Selected CRIP
        lsUsuario, 
        lsRol, 
        true
    );
}

Clearing Form Data

After successful insertion, the form resets:

public void Limpia_Datos()
{
    txtCoordinador.Text = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    Descripcion.Text = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    DescripcionCorta.Text = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    dplTipoUsuario.SelectedIndex = 0;
    dplCoordinador.Items.Clear();
    PrpTotal.Text = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    Objetivo.Text = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    
    lspresupuestototal = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    lsdescripcion = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    lsdescripcorta = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    lscoordinador = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    lsobjetivo = Dictionary.CADENA_NULA;
    
    clsFuncionesGral.Activa_Paneles(pnlPresupuestoLocal, false);
    chkLocal.Checked = false;
    dplComponente.SelectedIndex = 0;
    dplAdscripcion.Items.Clear();
    clsFuncionesGral.Activa_Paneles(pnlAdscripcion, false);
}

Best Practices

Descriptive Names

Use clear, standardized naming conventions that include the fiscal year and program area.

Accurate Budgets

Verify budget amounts against federal allocations before creating programs.

Transversal Planning

Mark programs as transversal only if they genuinely require cross-directorate collaboration.

Coordinator Coordination

Confirm with designated coordinators before assigning them to programs.

Common Errors

Missing required fields

Error: “Todos los campos son obligatorios, presupuesto numerico.”Solution: Ensure all fields have values:

Component is selected (not “0”)
Description, short description, and objective are filled
Coordinator is selected or entered
Budget is a valid numeric value

Non-numeric budget

Error: Budget validation failsSolution: Enter only numeric values with optional decimal points. Do not include currency symbols, commas, or text.

Local budget without global budget

Error: Local budget panel enabled but validation failsSolution: When adding local budget, you must also provide:

Global budget amount
Valid local budget amount (numeric)
Both amounts must be greater than zero
